Abraham responds to Sturm, makes offer

[Violent Demise]

This fight needs to happen. That way one of them at least gets eliminated for good. I think Sturm out-boxes Abraham.

[armin]

If Sturm is at the top of his game he would most likely outbox abraham but then again I'm thinking a good one on sturms chin from abraham might put him down, hopefully this'll happen and will be televised in the us.

[Kev]

They need to fight. Sturm looked decent against Pittman but I reckon Abraham would spark him in the late rounds.

Sturm is a decent compact fighter I fancy he'll crack under Abrahams pressure.

He's always reminded me a lot of Marcus Beyer.

This would have been more interesting to me in early 2006 when both guys looked to be at the top of their game. Now to me it's just another fight I mean it's interesting in the sense that both hold titles and could possibly be the next one to get KTFO! by Pavlik.

If they fought I'd favor Abraham by TKO.

[El Gamo]

Would be a decent fight. I think Sturm has the ability to outbox AA but I think AA's power catches up to him late.

I really don't think Pavlik is unbeatable. He managed to get two very close wins over Jermain Taylor, a fighter who his last 4 out of 5 previous opponents could claim they beat him as well.

I think Abraham would be a tough fight for Kelly. He'd probably start favourite but Abraham has never been KTFO by anyone even when his jaw was hanging from his face.

It's a tough fight imo.

Someone whos as busy as Pavlik and throws the straighter punches can get to Abraham.

I'm not saying Pavliks invincible cause I think Winky, Hopkins and Joe can beat him. But I am saying he beats Abraham and Sturm.

[El Gamo]

I think AA waits too long. You wait on Kelly Pavlik,you're getting KTFO. I'd choose JC and maybe B Hop to beat Kelly but Winky,Aa and Strum are getting their asses whipped imo. You don't stand in front of a punching machine like Pav and survive imo,not with those guys styles.

Yeah I can I agree with you to an extent I just don't think Abraham would get KTFO as you put it.

As for Winky and B Hop I don't think they'd do well against Pavlik. Winky is done as a top level fighter imo, his legs arn't there any more. He'd not have enough power to earn Pavliks respect and would spend most of the fight on the defensive.

B Hop I'm not sure about. I don't think he's active enough these days to outpoint Kelly and he hasn't knocked anyone out in years. But with Pavlik relentlessly and rather crudely coming forward it is possible that Bernard's famous withering shots could repeatedly find their target and hurt Kelly.

As for Joe Calzaghe, he's simply too fast, and too good for Pavlik and beats him in a clear decision imo.
